Thanks Everyone, I just opened the second box and pulled another 49 silver halves out. I know I should wait until I check all the boxes but this is incredible two boxes in a row. I pulled 10 64's, 1 65, 4 66's, 15 67's, 16 68's and 3 69's. That is 101 coins in two boxes, I have 6 to go. I will try to refrain from posting until I get through the other boxes. Wow I am really stoked today. It makes the skunked boxes all worth it.

Ksammut, I am in New Mexico, little town approximately 90 miles north of El Paso Texas. I believe all these coins are coming from El Paso. I am not 100 percent sure. I opened my third box and I see one on the end. Haven't started tearing into them yet. I will before the evening. My goal was to get $1000 worth of silver and I only need $40 more dollars, I hope the next boxes will yield me 15 coins with a good mix. Happy Hunting and Happy New Year! Party Safe!!

The run has ended, and its been a good year for my first one. It could not have ended better, box 3 yield 74 Silver halves and box 4 skunked, but in box 4 I pulled my first 74D DDO. So I reached my goal for the year, $1200 dollars in Silver value and a DDO. I am done until next year. Thanks to everyone for posting and sharing. I pulled a total of 183 silver halves out of 4 boxes. Box 3 numbers are 1 60 Franklin, 6 64S, 5 65's, 13 66's, 23 67's, 17 68's, and 9 69's. Enjoy the pictures. Don't give up the hunt. I am floored, I don't think I will beat this record in a long time. Happy New Year.

Very nice haul on those boxes Arby96. I hope you do even better this year.

It is now officially 2014 here on the East Coast. I wish everyone a prosperous New Year and lots of silver halves.

2013 results from April 1st to December 31st were:

702 boxes

683 40%ers

206 90%ers

And I can't forget these along with all of the other clips, light panchets, magicians coins, heavy planchets, 1974DDO, 1982 No FG, 2 1971D struck on quarter stock which are ANACS right now, and all of the fun stickers and counterstamped and mutilated halves I have found.

I had to scale it back starting in December and going into this year as I lost one of my dump banks.
